TECHNICAL FIELD

BACKGROUND

In the existing broadcast communication standards, such as a DVB-T2 system, every physical frame contains signalling and data, wherein the signalling indicates information such as coding and modulation, an interleaving mode, etc. of each service contained in the data. A receiving threshold of the signalling must be lower than a receiving threshold of all the services contained in the data in the physical frame. Therefore, coding and modulation of the signalling should provide stronger protection than the data, and at the same time should also provide a spectrum frequency as high as possible. In addition, the length of the signalling is variable with regard to each physical frame, and therefore coding and modulation of the signalling must also provide corresponding flexibility.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The inventor has found that in the prior art, there is no signalling coding and modulation method designed for a service with a relatively high receiving threshold (e.g. greater than 25 dB) in a predetermined channel.

With regard to the above problem, the inventor provides, through research, a signalling coding and modulation method and a demapping and decoding method to conduct a series of extension, coding, parity bit permutation, punching and mapping processing on signalling, and further designs and provides specific technical parameters of extension, coding, parity bit permutation, punching, mapping, etc. to conduct a high-efficient and robust signalling coding and modulation method.

To make the foregoing objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention more evident and comprehensible, the following describes specific implementation manners of the present invention in details with reference to the accompanying drawings.

For example, in a DVB-T2 system, one primary mode is an LDPC code with a code rate of 2/3 in cooperation with 256QAM mapping, a receiving threshold of the mode has reached 17 dB to 18 dB, and with the continuous increase of system capacity, for example, a coding and modulation mode of an LDPC code with a code rate of 2/3 in cooperation with 1024QAM mapping or even in cooperation with 4096QAM mapping would also emerge, and at this time, the receiving threshold would reach 25 dB or even 30 dB. It can be seen that the receiving threshold of a data service is determined based on a coding and modulation mode of a system. The present invention does not limit the specific numerical value of the receiving threshold, which is above a predetermined high threshold value, of a data service. In the embodiments below, a data service with a receiving threshold being greater than 25 dB in a white noise channel is chosen for description.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the overall procedure of a signalling coding and modulation method in an embodiment of the present invention;

In the embodiment of the present invention, a signalling coding and modulation method at a transmitting end comprises the steps of:

step S1-1: extending signalling which has been subjected to first predetermined processing according to an extension pattern table to obtain an extended codeword, and conducting predetermined coding on the extended codeword to obtain a encoded codeword;

step S1-2: conducting parity bit permutation on the encoded codeword to obtain a permutated encoded codeword;

step S1-3: according to the length of the signalling, punching the permutated encoded codeword according to a predetermined punching rule to obtain a punched encoded codeword; and

step S1-4: conducting second predetermined processing on the punched encoded codeword to obtain a tuple sequence, which is used for mapping, and then mapping the obtained tuple sequence into a signalling symbol according to a predetermined mapping rule.

It can be seen from step S1-1 to step S1-4 above that the signalling coding and modulation method conducts a series of extension, coding, parity bit permutation, punching and mapping processing on signalling, and furthermore, as a preferred example, the following processing is complementarily conducted on the basis of step S1-1 to step S1-4. That is, firstly scrambling is conducted on the signalling, and then BCH coding, extension, LDPC coding, parity bit permutation, punching, zero removing, bit demultiplexing, bit rotation and constellation mapping are successively conducted to obtain a signalling symbol. Specifically, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the specific procedure of a signalling coding and modulation method in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2:

A signalling coding and modulation method comprises the steps of:

step S1-1*: scrambling signalling with a length being Kg bits to obtain scrambled signalling with a length being K_(sig) bits;

step S1-2*: conducting BCH coding on the scrambled signalling, i.e. conducting calculation according to information bits to obtain 168 BCH parity bits; and splicing the BCH parity bits to the end of the scrambled signalling to obtain a BCH codeword with a length being N_(BCH)=K_(sig)+168 bits, wherein the BCH coding is specifically used to describe the problem of confirming the number of parity bits, that is, the number of the parity bits (168) is determined according to coding characteristics (e.g. BCH characteristics) in combination with the consideration of an overall block error ratio of signalling coding and modulation, for example, 168 BCH parity bits are able to correct 12-bit errors in signalling with a length being smaller than 6480 bits, while the number of 12-bit bits is further determined based on an overall block error ratio for improving signalling coding and modulation, and therefore the signalling may further be protected on the basis of an LDPC code by means of the processing in step S1-2*, thereby effectively improving the overall performance of signalling coding and modulation;

step S1-3*: extending the BCH codeword to obtain an extended BCH codeword with a length being K_(LDPC)=6480 bits;

step S1-4*: conducting LDPC coding on the obtained extended BCH codeword, to obtain an LDPC codeword with a length being N_(LDPC)=16200 bits;

step S1-5*: the LDPC codeword containing information bits of the first K_(LDPC) bits and parity bits of the last N_(LDPC)−K_(LDPC) bits, conducting parity bit permutation on the parity bits to obtain permutated parity bits, and splicing the permutated parity bits to the end of the information bits to obtain a permutated LDPC codeword;

step S1-6*: calculating the number of punchings according to the length of the signalling (K_(sig) bits), and punching a corresponding number of parity bits in the permutated LDPC codeword according to a predetermined punching rule, to obtain a punched LDPC codeword;

step S1-7*: removing zeros added in an extension operation from the punched LDPC codeword to obtain an LDPC codeword with zeros removed;

step S1-8*: conducting bit demultiplexing on the LDPC codeword with zeros removed to obtain a tuple sequence, wherein each tuple contains η_(mod)=8 bits;

step S1-9*: conducting bit rotation on each tuple in the tuple sequence to obtain a tuple sequence, which is used for mapping; and

step S1-10*: mapping the tuple sequence, which is used for mapping, into a signalling symbol according to a predetermined mapping rule.

The extension processing in step S1-3* above is specifically described as follows. In this embodiment, step S1-3* comprises the specific steps of:

defining the extended BCH codeword to be formed by sequentially splicing K_(LDPC)/Q bit groups, wherein each bit group contains Q bits, the number of bits Q within the bit group is the side length of an LDPC codeword sub-block, the value of Q is 360, and the K_(LDPC)/Q bit groups respectively form the 0th group, the 1st group, until the K_(LDPC)/Q−1th bit group from front to back;

if the number N_(Pad) of completely extended bit groups is greater than zero, wherein

${N_{Pad} = \left\lfloor \frac{K_{LDPC} - N_{BCH}}{Q} \right\rfloor},$

filling the π(0)th group to the π(N_(Pad)−1)th group in the extended BCH codeword with zeros, wherein

${\pi (0)},{\pi (1)},\ldots \mspace{14mu},{\pi \left( {\frac{K_{LDPC}}{Q} - 1} \right)}$

is defined by the extension pattern table in Table 1;

if the number N _(Pad) of the remaining extended bits is greater than zero, wherein N _(pad)=K_(LDPC)−N_(BCH)−QN_(Pad), then filling the first N_(pad) bits of the π(N_(Pad))th group with zeros; and filling bits which have not been filled with zeros of the extended BCH codeword with the BCH codeword with a length being N_(BCH) from front to back.

The extension patterns in Table 1 below are jointly designed according to the capacity of each bit in constellation mapping and degree distribution of different variable nodes in the information bits of the LDPC codeword, and by optimizing the extension patterns, the coding and modulation performance may be effectively improved.

The permutation sequence in Table 3 below is jointly designed according to the capacity of each bit in constellation mapping and degree distribution of different variable nodes in the parity bits of the LDPC codeword, and by optimizing the permutation sequence, the coding and modulation performance may be effectively improved.

TABLE 3 Predetermined position permutation table ${\pi_{p}(0)},{\pi_{p}(1)},\cdots \;,{\pi_{p}\left( \frac{N_{LDPC} - K_{LDPC}}{Q} \right)}$ 26 5 11 15 6 10 3 9 24 0 4 13 14 19 25 12 7 17 2 16 21 18 1 23 22 8 20

The specific numerical value of the number of bits in Table 3 is described as follows: in practical applications, in a transmission standard, information bits of the first several number of bits (e.g. 18 bits) are taken into consideration, and the parity bits are following the information bits so that the counting of the number of bits of the parity bits starts from the number of bits of that information bit (counting from the 18th bit). It needs to be noted that in Table 3 of this embodiment, what is described is to start counting from the 0th bit with regard to the parity bits, and if the preceding information bits and the following parity bits are comprehensively taken into consideration, the counting for the parity bits should accumulate the number of bits of the information bits. Those skilled in the art would readily understand that this is not limited by the difference of the starting point of specific numerical values of counting, so as to infer other specific parameters in a similar manner herein.

The punching processing in step S1-6* above is specifically described as follows. In this embodiment, step S1-6* comprises the specific steps of:

calculating the first punching number N_(punc) _(_) _(temp) by means of a first punching formula according to the length K_(sig) of the signalling, the first punching formula being N_(punc) _(_) _(temp)=└A(K_(LDPC)−K_(sig)−168)+B▪ and in this embodiment, the length of the extended BCH codeword being K_(LDPC)=6480 and A and B being constants

${A = \frac{49}{256}},{B = 8246},$

wherein 168 in K_(LDPC)−K_(sig)−168 is the number of bits L_(p) of parity bits of the BCH, wherein the constant A and the constant B are designed and determined in order to enable the signalling coding and modulation scheme to have a close receiving threshold with different K_(sig);

calculating the second punching number N_(punc) by means of a second punching formula according to the first punching number N_(punc) _(_) _(temp) the second punching formula being:

${N_{punc} = {N_{{punc}\; \_ \; {temp}} - \left( {{\left\lceil \frac{N_{BCH} + N_{LDPC} - K_{LDPC} - N_{{punc}\; \_ \; {temp}}}{\eta_{mod}} \right\rceil \eta_{mod}} - N_{BCH} - N_{LDPC} + K_{LDPC} + N_{{punc}\; \_ \; {temp}}} \right)}};$

and

removing the last N_(punc) bits of the LDPC codeword to obtain a punched LDPC codeword.

The bit demultiplexing processing in step S1-8* above is specifically described as follows. In this embodiment, step S1-8* comprises the specific steps of:

successively writing the LDPC codeword with zeros removed into a matrix containing η_(mod) columns and

$\left\lceil \frac{N_{BCH} + N_{LDPC} - K_{LDPC} - N_{{punc}\; \_ \; {temp}}}{\eta_{mod}} \right\rceil$

rows according to columns; and

sequentially reading out from the matrix by rows, and forming one tuple with η_(mod) bits in each row so as to obtain the tuple sequence containing

$\left\lceil \frac{N_{BCH} + N_{LDPC} - K_{LDPC} - N_{{punc}\; \_ \; {temp}}}{\eta_{mod}} \right\rceil$

tuples.

The bit rotation processing in step S1-9* above is specifically described as follows. In this embodiment, step S1-9* comprises the specific steps of:

keeping the first tuple in the tuple sequence unchanged; rotating the second tuple in the tuple sequence by one bit, i.e. the first bit of the tuple after rotation is the η_(mod) th bit in the original tuple, the second bit of the tuple after rotation is the first bit in the original tuple, the third bit of the tuple after rotation is the second bit of the original tuple, and by analogy, the η_(mod) th bit of the tuple after rotation is the η_(mod)−1th bit of the original tuple; by the same reasoning, rotating the third tuple of the tuple sequence by two bits; by the same reasoning, rotating the fourth tuple of the tuple sequence by three bits; and by analogy, rotating all the tuples in the tuple sequence to obtain a rotated tuple sequence.

In other words, the first tuple (the tuple number y corresponds to 0) of the tuple sequence is kept unchanged, and the yth tuple (the tuple number y corresponds to 1, 2, 3 . . . ) of the tuple sequence is rotated by y−1 bits, thereby correspondingly rotating all the tuples in the tuple sequence to obtain the rotated tuple sequence.

It is noted that rotating the η_(MOD)+1 th, the 2η_(MOD)+1th tuples, etc. by an integral multiple of η_(MOD) bits is equivalent to no rotation, and rotating the η_(MOD)+2th, the 2η_(MOD)+2 th, tuples, etc. is equivalent to rotating one bit.

The predetermined mapping rule in step S1-10* above is specifically described as follows. In this embodiment, step S1-10* comprises the specific steps of:

mapping each tuple of the tuple sequence into one signalling symbol, wherein the mapping rule is as shown in the constellation mapping rule table in Table 4, for example, when one tuple is “00000001”, it will be mapped into 1.2668+0.8034i.

In summary, the constellation mapping rule table in Table 4 provides a 256QAM mapping rule. If a constellation mapping rule table different from Table 4 is used, then parameter values in a corresponding extension pattern table and a predetermined position permutation table and the specific values of the constants A and B in the first punching formula in the punching processing in step S1-6* will also change accordingly.

The 256QAM constellation mapping rule table, parameter values in the corresponding extension pattern table and the predetermined position permutation table and the specific values of the constants A and B in the first punching formula in the punching processing in step S1-6* used in this embodiment are optimally designed, which can effectively reduce the computation complexity of coding and modulation, and demodulation and decoding of a system, and improve system performance.

With regard to [1] a signalling coding and modulation method containing the above extension processing: an embodiment of the present invention further provides a signalling coding and modulation method, comprising the steps of:

conducting BCH coding on the signalling, and extending an obtained BCH codeword to obtain an extended BCH codeword; and processing the extended BCH codeword to obtain a signalling symbol,

wherein if the number N_(Pad) of completely extended groups is greater than zero, then the π(0)th group until the π(N_(Pad)−1)th group in the extended BCH codeword are filled with zeros; if the number N _(Pad) of the remaining extended bits is greater than zero, then the first K_(LDPC)−N_(BCH)−QN_(Pad) bits of the π(N_(Pad))th group are filled with zeros; and bit positions which have not been filled with zeros in the extended BCH codeword are filled with the BCH codeword from front to back.

By the same reasoning, the π(0)th group, π(1)th group, . . . ,

group are defined by the extension pattern table in Table 1 above.

In addition, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a signalling demodulation and decoding method. FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of the procedure of a specific embodiment of signalling demodulation and decoding of the present invention. With reference to FIG. 3, signalling demodulation and decoding comprises the steps of:

step S2-1: demapping a receiving end signalling symbol corresponding to a sending end signalling symbol according to a predetermined mapping rule to obtain a log likelihood ratio;

Step S2-1 to step S2-3 at the receiving end are described corresponding to step S1-1 to step S1-4 in the overall procedure at the sending end. When the signalling coding and modulation method does not only conduct a series of extension, coding, parity bit permutation, punching and mapping processing on signalling, but also further conducts at least any complementary processing such as step S1-1* to step S1-10*, e.g. scrambling the signalling, and then successively conducting BCH coding, extension, LDPC coding, parity bit permutation, zero removing, bit demultiplexing, bit rotation and constellation mapping and the like, then correspondingly, signalling demodulation and decoding at the receiving end has the specific steps as follows.

step S2-3: according to the scrambling, BCH coding, extension and LDPC coding rules at the transmitting end, conducting decoding and corresponding inverse processing on the LDPC encoded codeword log likelihood ratio at the receiving end to obtain the signalling.

It needs to be noted that in step S2-2, the corresponding inverse processing corresponds to parity bit permutation, punching, zero removing, bit demultiplexing and bit rotation rules at the transmitting end, and the specific implementation does not necessarily need to be conducted in an order opposite to the transmitting end, and the order of specific steps can be altered by various conversions or mutual combinations.
